MAGICIAN and Noble Mission are the two who dominate this. The former, last year's Breeders' Cup Turf winner, returned from a fine run in the Dubai Sheema Classic to beat the reopposing Parish Hall narrowly though convincingly. He's the type to do even better this season and could prove just too good for Lady Cecil's son of Galileo, who has three Group 3's to his credit but has never won at a higher level though he appears to be improving with age. Along Came Casey has only won at Listed level but could still prove too good for the remainder.
